I’m so ready for winter to be over and spring to begin. Blooming plants, warmer weather and Easter are all things I look forward to celebrating.

My in-laws live across the country and we don’t get to see them often enough. So, when Red Envelope offered me the chance to purchase one of their fabulous (and yummy) gifts for spring, I knew just who to send it to. Shhh… don’t tell, but I ordered them the Cherry Moon Farms Favorites that includes a fun mix organic fruit, nuts and jelly beans (shown in the lower left corner).
How are you celebrating spring?

Personalized Valentines for the Class from a Little Artist

A relative alerted me to this darling Valentines craft from Blonde Designs which I quickly pinned. I knew it was the perfect project for my little artist.

I simply printed the template on cardstock, cut it on the crop marks and then scored it so it would fold over. My little one then personalized each illustration for everyone in her class.

Although the candy is cute {btw when did Valentine’s Day turn into Halloween?!}, I decided to go a different route for the “goodie.” I found mini color pencil sets that although are a little bigger than the tag, looked great and embraced the artist theme.

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, I wanted to share some very cute cards from Paper Source. The guitar and little critter cards come as a kit and would make a great craft project for your child.

Although not a card, I also love this Quilled Heart Garland. Wouldn’t it be cute hanging in a window?

Peace on Earth

I heard the bells on Christmas Day
Their old, familiar carols play,
And wild and sweet
The words repeat
Of peace on earth, good-will to men!
~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Wishing you a very joyous holiday! I am taking some time off blogging to enjoy time with my family.
